Chronicle During Books Courageous
Retailers Choice Award winner, 2012From the creators of "Fireproof" comes an inspiring new story about everyday heroes who long to be the kinds of dads that make a lifelong impact on their children. As law enforcement officers, Adam Mitchell, Nathan Hayes, and their partners willingly stand up to the worst the world can offer. Yet at the end of the day, they face a challenge that none of them are truly prepared to tackle: fatherhood. While they consistently give their best on the job, good enough seems to be all they can muster as dads. But they're quickly discovering that their standard is missing the mark. They know that God desires to turn the hearts of fathers to their children, but their children are beginning to drift farther and farther away from them. Will they be able to find a way to serve and protect those who are most dear to them? When tragedy hits home, these men are left wrestling with their hopes, their fears, their faith, and their fathering. Can a newfound urgency help these dads draw closer to God . . . and to their children?Rating Appertaining To Books Courageous

This is about all I am going to say about this book. I have been anxiously awaiting the next film from the Kendrick brothers after watching Fireproof. I get the updates, have the wallpaper on my laptop and I now have the book!Now, I don't want to spoil anything for those who have not watched the movie or have not read the book. So I am going to be somewhat cryptic in this review. Not like my normal ones where people can know who I am talking about, etc. I just really want to give
If you didn't know already this book was based on a movie by the same name. In our small town we do not get first run movies, so this movie hit our one screen theater in January 2012. My kids went to see it and came home fired up, just like after Fireproof (another movie by the same people). I had to see this. Somehow I ended up awake at 4 am and buying this book for my Kindle. It is now 8:30pm and I think that is the fastest I have ever finished a book. This book will make you laugh, cry,
This is an excellent book! Not only should it inspire fathers to man up, but it should be an inspiration to all of us to be better fathers, mothers, grandparents, aunts, uncles, whatever. I highly recommend this book. Now I want to see the movie!
A very exciting book from Randy Alcorn. Starting out, I kept getting confused with who was who. I never saw the movie that this book was based on, if I had, I would probably be able to keep up with the novel. Otherwise, it was a very good story based on the Sheriff's department in Albany, Georgia.I really liked the opportunities that Adam (the main character) had in witnessing to those who were lost. These opportunities showed how to witness to the lost, and to follow up with them. I also liked
christian fiction other than left behind series, awesome.this is the story of 4 police officers and their families. The 4 police officers are Nathan and his partner rookie David and Corporal Adam and his partner Shane. Corporal Adam's daughter get his by a drunk driver and Emily dies. Adam forgives the driver and so does his wife Victoria. Adam didn't have a good relationship with his son in the early part of the novel, they didn't run together but later they run together and talk about
OMG! if I could get away with no star I would have chosen no rating at all. My partner and I went to see this movie because the synopsis in no way indicated that it would be far damn cheaper to go to church to be preached at.When I go to a movie and pay $10 I expect to be entertained and see a good plot in action for two hours that will grasp my imagination. It became quite clear to us within minutes that what was being inflicted on us was having bloody religion shoved down our throats. Religion
